Refrigerant 134a expands in a piston-cylinder assembly from p₁ = 200 lb/in² and T₁ = 140°F to p2 = 30 lb/in² and T₂ = 80 °F. The mass of refrigerant is 0.46 lb. During the process, the work done by the refrigerant is 4.32 Btu. Kinetic and potential energy effects are gligible. Determine the initial volume of the refrigerant, V₁, in ft³, and the heat transfer for the process, in Btu.

A rigid container contains m = 3 kg of air. The air changes from an initial state of P1 = 0.5 MPa and T1 = 75°C to its final pressure P2 = 1.2 MPa while it is stirred. The heat absorbed is Q12 = 195 kJ. Assume air to be an ideal gas with cv = 0.714 kJ/kg K. Determine the final temperature T2, change in thermal energy _U12 and work done W12

Determine the initial volume of the refrigerant, V₁, in ft³, and the heat transfer for the process, in Btu. Step 1 * Your answer is incorrect. Determine the initial volume of the refrigerant, V₁, in ft³. V₁= 0.105743 ft3

A rigid tank of volume 10 m³ initially contains saturated water vapor at a temperature of 120 °C. Steam at a pressure 1.2 MPa and a temperature of 400 °C enters the tank through a valve in steam line that is connected to the tank until the final pressure in the tank is 800 kPa, at which time the temperature is 200 °C. All kinetic and potential energy effects can be neglected. A schematic of the problem and properties at all state points except state 1 are shown in the figure below. All of the properties at state 2 and the inlet state i are provided on the figure. Initial State in Tank T₁-120 °C, Sat. vapor u₁=? kJ/kg V₁=? m³/kg Pi=1.2 MPa, Ti-400 °C hi-3261.3 kJ/kg V=10 m³ Final State in Tank T: 200 °C, P₂-800 kPa u₂= 2631.1 kJ/kg v₂=0.26088 m³/kg Qout For Question 6: The initial specific internal energy, u1, of the saturated vapor in the tank in kJ/kg is
